SECRET RAY BEAMS

It's 7:22 a.m., bright out and Patrick is downstairs sleeping on the couch with Junior.

We had a guy come out yesterday and install a wireless high-speed internet modem thingamagig to our computers. The "Installation" consisted of plugging it into my computer. We routed it to Junior's. Our electric co-op has partnered with some outfit to provide this service in the county. We have a little three inch antennae on the window sill, that picks up some kind of X-ray signal broadcasted from one of four very attractive towers they've erected and viola! we are connected to the net 24/7 with no interrruption of the phone ringing from bill collectors. BYE-BYE DIAL UP!! It has made my old computer (Windows 98) run at somewhere near normal speed and really suped up Junior's XP. He says he can now download pirated music much faster, and PDF's open up quickly...So we have entered the 21st century computer-wise and a whole new here-to-fore unnaccessible portion of the world wide web is now available for our leisure surfing. Whoo-hoo!!!

So many of you haqve complained that Faith Hill is not on our list. Well, in our defense the list is "Top Ten Smokin' Hot Hollywood Actresses". But we DO agree with you.

As the Old Ranger used to say--"So Long"
